What do you look for in a ‘local’?

In conjunction with the Stow Times and Moreton Times.

Wellington Inn

• A good pint rates highly - maybe with some interesting guest beers from time to time
  (and some reasonable wines and a good range of soft drinks too)
• A friendly landlord – who remembers you when you come in regularly
• A welcome, and good friendly service
• A good place to meet friends & neighbours
• Easy to get to, on foot or bicycle maybe, and with a good car park
• Serving good food, ideally fresh and at affordable prices
• A great sports TV screen, but not in the main bar (if we cheer we want to really cheer!)
• A clean pub with good and clean loos
• Somewhere you can take the family sometimes - comfortable and not pricey
• Where the girls can met up without feeling uncomfortable
• A welcome for a well behaved pooch at the end of a walk
• In our part of the world, somewhere with a nice space outside for the summer.

We love a good pub, and in the Cotswolds it can be tricky finding a ‘good local’ that meets the needs of local people. The Wellington Inn on London Road in Moreton in Marsh is now in the caring hands of Chris Sweet & Celia Perrin, and the difference shows already….they are certainly collecting ticks in their boxes.

The ‘Wellie’ – it’s friendly and very welcoming!

You know you feel welcome from the moment you walk in – it
looks right, with comfortable chairs, clean tables, and a smile
behind the bar.

“Good value for everybody”
There’s Sky Sport on the big screen in the Club Room, with its own
small bar. The menu is for good wholesome food – steak and ale
pudding and basket meals, available from £5 /£6.50 You can enjoy
eating here without it breaking the bank – and bring the family too.
Food is available on weekdays from 5pm til 8.30pm(ish).

A weekend at home – perfect!
Families are welcome at The Wellington and for the summer Chris
& Celia have equipped the pub’s big terrace at the back with Bar-
B-Qs – you bring the family and friends with whatever meat you
want to cook, and ‘The Wellie’ will provide the charcoal and the
drinks. Arrange a weekend get-together at The Wellington, tell
everyone to bring their own sausages or kebabs for the Barbie,
and have a party – Chris & Celia will provide the bar, and do the
washing up! The cost? £5 for a bag of charcoal, and part of that
goes into the pub’s charity box. Now that’s a Great Idea!

A diary date – a FAMILY WEEKEND & BEER FESTIVAL at The
Wellington on 22 & 23 August, in support of the "First
Response" voluntary paramedics.
And a valuable P.S – The Wellie can arrange a hot & cold
buffet for your event, tailored to meet your budget.
